so long as the sum of the two sides is greater than a third, it works.
This can represent a triangle.
area is sqrt (s*(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)), where s=(a+b+c)/2
s=570/2=285
sqrt(285*45*162*78)=12730.15 UNITS

Determine whether a triangle can be formed with the given side lengths. If so, use Heron's formula to find the area of the triangle.
===========
You can use Heron's Law to see if the sides can make a triangle.
eg, a = 3, b = 4, c = 9
----
s = (3+4+9)/2 = 8
---
Area = sqrt(8*5*3*-1)
